ETA: More casting news! Viggo Mortensen and Amy Adams joins OTR!
Deadline.com EXCLUSIVE: Francis Ford Coppola has been working for 30 years to turn Jack Kerouac's seminal Beat Generation novel On the Road into a movie. It is starting to look like it was worth the wait. Amy Adams and Viggo Mortensen are joining the Walter Salles-directed adaptation that will begin this month, I'm told. She will play Jane, the emotionally damaged junkie mother of two children and the wife of Old Bull Lee. Mortensen is going to play Lee. Kirsten Dunst, Kristen Stewart, Sam Riley and Tron: Legacy's Garrett Hedlund are also set for the pic. Script's by Jose Rivera, who teamed with Salles on The Motorcycle Diaries. Coppola and Rebecca Yeldham are producing.

The last time I heard they will shoot in Mexico instead of Argentina. Yeah, that part is questionnable. The whole shoot may last till December but Kristen's part will surely over by then, since Breaking Dawn will commence filming in October (or at least the pre-prod).
A short transcript of Marie Ginette's interview after the CUT
Journalist: "Marie-Ginette Guay, an actress from here, will be part of a big production."
Reporter: "Yes, she will be part of 'On the Road', a movie made of Jack Kerouac's book. 'The Motorcycle Diaries' Walter Salles will be directing it. British actor, Sam Riley best known for his role in 'Control', will be playing the main character. Twilight star, Kristen Stewart, is also part of the project. So, maybe there will be a few teenagers girls envious of Marie-Ginette Guay, because she has a few scenes with the actress."
Journalist: "Maybe it'll be a great occasion for the teenagers to know more about Jack Kerouac."
Reporter: "Indeed. And, I think that Stewart is the type of actress who chooses roles like these. Even if she's part of 'Twilight', she's an intelligent actress. She has a great career. It will be an awesome experience for MGG.."
MGG: "It's a big team. It'll be the first time that I'll be part of a big production like this. It'll really be a great adventure for me. The role of Jack Kerouac's mother is really interesting. We all know that they were close. She's part of all these Quebecers who lived in Massachusetts to have jobs, back then. It's a fantastic story. I read the all book in two days."
Reporter: "It's not the first time that they've tried to make movie. Francis Ford Coppola has the rights since 1968, he'll be producing it. [...] Filming starts tomorrow and will end in December. The movie filmed in many countries.."
MGG: "We will be filming in Montreal, Argentina, Mexico.. I'll be only part of the Montreal filming."
Reporter: "Will it all be filmed in English?"
MGG: "Yes, but, there'll be some french to. Since, when we're at home, we speak french, the majoty of my scenes are in french. Because it's a home, there's a few scenes where it's in english but they'rw really small. It's complicated because of my Quebec accent."
Journalist: "When is it coming out?"
Reporter: "The release date is still unknown. But, it's in 2011. Filming starts tomorrow. But, Walter Salles will be making a documentary along with the movie, it will be called 'In search of On the Road'. He'll be looking for people who were part of the 'beat generation' So, we all should look forward of hear alot about Jack Kerouac's 'On the Road' in the near future.
